Grass Seed #864424

Asked April 13, 2024, 6:39 PM EDT

Hi, We have fescue grass and live in the Portland area. We need to spot seed areas where there are holes. The front and backyard are shady Nov through Feb. Which type of fescue would you recommend? There is tall fescue and several other varieties. I attached a screenshot of different varieties of fescue. Thank you for your response.

Thank you for your question, Alisa.  Shade in lawns during the winter is less of a factor than conditions during the other seasons.  Here is a comprehensive guide to lawns in Western Oregon that should help guide you:  https://extension.oregonstate.edu/catalog/pub/ec-1521-practical-lawn-care-western-oregon
Good luck!
